Just a quick sketch of the character Uraraka from My Hero Academia. She's not my favorite character but her design and quirk inspire cute illustration ideas for me. The background is too faint to see, but eventually once my PC is repaired I will clean up and color this digitally. :3

Manhua

Status: Ongoing

The manhua follows the novel closely though it only misses some details. It is the best way to become familiar with the story since it actually follows canon.

Donghua (Anime)

Status: Season 2 Concluded as of September 2019

The donghua is a loose adaptation of the novel. Expect differences in plot and characterization. The bond between the two leads is also less focused on.

Live Action Drama: Chenqingling/The Untamed

Status: Complete as of August 2019

The live action is also a loose adaptation of the novel so, again, expect differences in plot and characterization. It highlights the more emotional parts of the novel and the bond between the two leads (within the bounds of censorship).

We strongly suggest reading the novel first + manhua (for the visuals) or audio drama to get a good grasp of the story if you’re not familiar with the xianxia and/or wuxia genre.

If there’s anything that was left out, let us know.

Please support the works from the official site if you can!
